Windows 10 | Ubuntu | Legacy / UEFI installation
Windows 10 | Ubuntu | Legacy / UEFI installation
I once faced a problem where I completely wiped out my Windows boot partition while trying to set up a dual-boot with Ubuntu. This led me to take my device to a DELL service center, which quickly resolved the issue and restored my system. Prior to visiting the service center, my Windows was installed on a 128GB SSD using UEFI mode, whereas after the visit it was installed in legacy mode on the same SSD. My goal was to create a multi-boot setup where I wouldn’t be forced to use GRUB Boot-loader. I managed to achieve this by installing Ubuntu in legacy mode and Windows in UEFI mode, allowing me to switch between them easily. Now, I’m seeking guidance on replicating this configuration when my Windows installation is set to legacy mode. I’m stuck because I can’t enable Secure Boot or UEFI in the BIOS, as it reports no UEFI partition found. Thanks, Armaanfarshori
Consider forming a FAT32 partition that includes the boot flag
